This full-color, comprehensive, affordable introductory biology manual is appropriate for both majors and nonmajors laboratory courses. All general biology topics are covered extensively, and the manual is designed to be used with a minimum of outside reference material. The activities emphasize the unity of all living things and the evolutionary forces that have resulted in, and continue to act on, the diversity that we see around us today. An extensive full-color art and photography program includes many specimen and dissection images, labeled diagrams, cladograms, and helpful life-cycle illustrations. In addition to providing the necessary images to help students work through the lab procedures, the manual also includes hundreds of images of representative organisms, providing ample visual support for the lab. Check Your Understanding questions after each exercise ask thought-provoking questions in order to measure student progress throughout the chapter. A Chapter Review ends each chapter and provides thoughtful questions to ensure that students understand the overall concepts from the chapter.
This edition is designed for courses populated by nonmajors or for majors courses where abbreviated coverage is desired.
